Chapter 23: A Huge Scheme, Betrayer of the Demon Clan
Hu Meiniang nervously pulled Chen Changsheng into the room.
Meeting an old acquaintance once again, Hu Meiniang felt a surge of emotions, with countless words stuck in her throat.
After a long hesitation, she could only repeat her thoughts.
“Senior, you shouldn’t have come to the Night Moon Nation; it’s a place fraught with danger.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled lightly and replied, “It seems you, little fox, know quite a lot!”
“But this has nothing to do with me. My purpose is very simple: I just want to marry Princess Wanyan.”
“All other matters are irrelevant to me.”
Seeing Chen Changsheng’s calm demeanor, Hu Meiniang became even more anxious.
“Senior, you and Princess Wanyan are on familiar terms, I know you definitely didn’t come for her.”
“But no matter what your reason is, please leave the Night Moon Nation quickly.”
“The marriage recruitment event is a scam; staying here is of no benefit to you.”
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Hearing this, the little white wolf tied up nearby suddenly began to bark wildly.
It seemed to be denouncing this betrayer of the Demon Clan.
Unfortunately, Hu Meiniang was from the Fox Clan, not the Dog Clan, so she didn’t understand dog barks.
“A scam?”
“This is interesting. Both the Fox Clan and the Tiger Clan, the two pillars of the Night Moon Nation, are participating. How could this be a scam?”
“Besides, even if it is a scam, how would a small demon like you know about it?”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s words, Hu Meiniang was momentarily speechless.
Finally, Hu Meiniang gritted her silver teeth and said, “Senior, if it weren’t for your bestowed opportunity, Meiniang might have never been able to attain the Foundation Establishment Stage.”
“But I cannot tell you about the scam of the marriage recruitment event.”
“I can only tell you that the event’s location will definitely be set in the Forbidden Ground of the Night Moon Nation.”
“If you don’t have a key item in hand, going there will only lead to certain d*ath.”
“The Fox Clan and Tiger Clan have already obtained the key items, so they are not in danger of d*ath.”
“If you must go, then you must search for someone of the Human Clan like yourself within the Forbidden Ground.”
“During the last war between the two nations, two Human Clan individuals mastered some secrets, and later, they were hunted into the Forbidden Ground by the Spirit Masters of the Night Moon Nation.”
“If they are still alive, they might be your only chance of survival.”
After saying this, Hu Meiniang panicked and left the room.
Once Hu Meiniang was gone, Chen Changsheng picked up the barking little bald dog from the floor and untied some of its restraints.
“Betrayer! She’s simply a betrayer of the Demon Clan.”
“I will definitely tear her flesh to pieces.”
Listening to the little white wolf’s curses, Chen Changsheng gently stroked its fur and said, “Little White, can you now tell me the secrets of the Night Moon Nation?”
“If I’m not mistaken, those two who were chased into the Forbidden Ground should be the Immortal of Eternal Life and Master Yixiu, right?”
Upon hearing this, the little white wolf shot Chen Changsheng a disdainful glance and said, “Don’t even think about it! Even if you k*ll me, I won’t tell you.”
“I’ll tell you this: you better not release me, or I will definitely tear that cheap fox Hu Meiniang to pieces.”
“When the Fox Clan was merciful enough to let her go, little did they know she would turn around and help outsiders. She deserves to d*e!”
Seeing the little white wolf’s angry expression, Chen Changsheng replied blandly, “It seems that the Night Moon Nation has undergone a major cleansing!”
“When I met Hu Meiniang, she was only a cultivator at the ninth layer of Qi Refining, and her shape wasn’t even complete.”
“At that time, she spoke with pure innocence, not at all like a cultivator struggling at the bottom.”

“Back then, I was also puzzled about why a young lady from a wealthy demon family would run out to experience the world alone.”
“Now it seems that she didn’t come out by herself, but was driven out by you!”
Hearing this, the little white wolf coldly glared at Chen Changsheng and said, “Who said Hu Meiniang is a young lady from a wealthy family? She’s just an ordinary demon.”
“Haha!”
“What you said is quite self-defeating, isn’t it?”
“However, it’s understandable since you’ve never witnessed the life of a low-level cultivator.”
“The cultivation world is a place where the strong prey on the weak, and low-level cultivators are even worse.”
“Sometimes, friends as close as brothers will fight to the d*ath over a single spiritual stone.”
“If Hu Meiniang were not the young lady of a wealthy family, with her character back then, she might have long since died without a trace.”
“Now that she has returned to the Fox Clan, I’m afraid it’s to avenge the deep-seated hatred from back then!”
“Ha!”
Upon hearing this, the little white wolf sneered, “Just based on her being a mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, she thinks she can take revenge?”
“Not to mention her; even if you were added, you two wouldn’t stir up much trouble in the Night Moon Nation.”
“I’ve mentioned many times that I have no interest in the secrets of the Night Moon Nation, and I can’t help whether you want to destroy the Great Qian Nation.”
“I just want to bring back the bodies of my master and brothers; why don’t you believe me?”
“If you only wanted to bring back the bodies of your old friends, would you go through so much trouble?”
“Now I even suspect that your chance encounter with me was something you arranged in advance.”
“You have ulterior motives, attempting to overthrow my Night Moon Nation.”
Seeing the little white wolf’s increasingly absurd thoughts, Chen Changsheng could only shake his head helplessly, then tied her to the edge of the bed.
“Think what you like; I’m going to sleep now.”
“How dare you! You actually let me sleep on the floor; do you believe I’ll k*ll you?”
Faced with the little white wolf’s threat, Chen Changsheng waved his right hand, instantly silencing her.
With that, no matter how much anger the little white wolf felt, it wouldn’t disturb Chen Changsheng’s sweet dreams.
……
In the morning, the first rays of sunlight shone down on the earth.
After a rowdy night, the little white wolf was curled up at the foot of the bed, sleeping soundly.
Suddenly, a large hand reached out and grabbed it by the scruff of its neck, lifting it up.
“Stop sleeping; we’re about to set off.”
Opening its sleepy wolf eyes, the little white wolf shot Chen Changsheng a glance before closing its eyes once more.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng chuckled lightly without scolding, then cuddled the little white wolf in his arms and walked out of the room.
“Brother Chen, did you rest well last night?”
Hu Zhan stood outside the door with a smiling face, waiting for Chen Changsheng.
Upon seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and replied, “I had a sweet sleep last night; thank you for your hospitality, Brother Hu.”
At this time, Hu Zhan noticed the little bald dog in Chen Changsheng’s arms and curiously asked, “Brother Chen, do you plan to bring it along for the trial?”
“Of course! I and Little White are inseparable; wherever I go, it will follow.”
Upon hearing the name Little White, Hu Zhan paused for a moment, then smiled.
“Brother Chen is truly amusing; you even named it Little White. How interesting!”
“I had no choice; Little White always fantasizes about having a pure-white fur coat, so I had to give it this name.”
“By the way, bringing Little White to the trial won’t be an issue, right?”
“It won’t be an issue; this trial has no restrictions on methods, of course, including battle pets.”
“Please follow me, Brother Chen.”
